Language proficiency is a cornerstone of our approach, offering services in French, Dutch, and English. This linguistic competence, combined with close collaboration between Francophone and Dutch-speaking lawyers, enriches the firm’s expertise and ensures a nuanced understanding of legal issues in the country’s two main languages. This capability is essential, especially for cases requiring a deep knowledge of legal texts and regulations and jurisprudence in the two main national languages.
